The Vegas Golden Knights try to close out the Florida Panthers in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final on Tuesday night. Florida is trying to become just the second team in NHL history to rally from a 3-1 series deficit to win the Stanley Cup.
The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs came back from a 3-0 hole to defeat the Detroit Red Wings for the Cup. The Panthers are using their opening-round victory against the Boston Bruins as a rallying cry, as they came back from 3-1 down for a shocking Game 7 win.
But as of Tuesday morning, the Golden Knights were a -190 favorite on the money line. Here are some wagers I like for Game 5 (8 p.m.
ET) in Las Vegas. Resources: Injuries | Schedule | How to watch on ESPN+ | Daily lines | Bracket, highlights and more Odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook.
